Hands down my favorite from start to finish. I won this clone from a local hydro shop and it forced me to jump into action and finally start my grow. I tried asking about the genetics or background of the plant a ton, but they never told me anything about it. They even call it "Orange Cello" but everywhere I found it online it's just one word, Orangecello, because it's like Limoncello.
UPDATE! I was able to track down the breeder and pheno hunter for this cut. Shout out to @dmvp.va for selecting this and @haftoney for breeding it.
The official lineage: You have Orangecello #4. Orangecello is Fresca (a Flomosa pheno) x (True OG x Kushmints #11)
Some famous parents! Grandpa DJ Short Flo, that explains the floral scent, and that Flomosa side of the cross seems to line up very well with this particular expression.
I found a bit about Fresca (Flomosa pheno) online - ""Fresca" is a strain I created in Los Angeles using my cut of DJ Short's Flo and a Mimosa male hunted from the original Symbiotic seed drop. I named Flomosa #22 the "Fresca" pheno because of it's sweet and sharply tart orange and grapefruit pellegrino terpene profile. Fresca smells like you are literally smelling a freshly cracked and bubbly Fresca soda."
In veg, it responded well as I learned about how to best train it. In flower, the smell was insane... after the first smell my eyes rolled back. Sweet floral orange citrus with a hint of chemical cleaner smell that comes together to smell like a tropical sunscreen.
When I was trimming the tester, my friend was walking by and stopped in his tracks, "whoa which one is that!?" - this one is loud! The smell is super strong even after drying, and really translates into the smoke. This was the star of the show, and made the best smoke. 10/10 would grow again.
One small issue was that this plant was by far the most susceptible to powdery mildew. It started on this plant, and any time it popped up in the tent, this plant had some. I had to stay on the Dr Zymes and trimming any affected leaves, but it was worth it.
Overall I ended up with just under 40g, but I smoked a bunch while trimming and took a sample cut, so really it was 7-10g more... this one was chopped on day 64. The buds were fat and firm and the trichomes looked ready, with a good mix - probably 5% clear 85% cloudy 10% amber.
I trimmed this plant 2nd and was getting better at it, ended up with some really nice looking nugs... so of course I took a ton of pics!
Is it OK to use my old compost tea? Can it be used as a foliar spray? If yes, can this be done during the daytime cycle?
My tea started brewing on 1/5 and it's only 4 days later. The tea doesn't smell horrible and is only 400ppm. It feels like a waste to dump it.
How will I know when it's time to transplant? Some roots showing at the bottom of the cups, but plants still seem too small with only around 6 baby leaves. Sprouted 12/28 but some early stunted growth, we are early week 3 but maybe lagging behind "normal" growth.
Nice looking plants very healthy! I love chocolate mint og ๐ its such a unique flavor and the buzz is very strong almost narcotic nice choice brotha
Looks Dope!
Love that permanent marker you got goin. I'm sure they still have some filling in to do yet!
Not bad for a Noob. Not bad!
I'm sure someone will give you a well deserved pat on the back when you choke on that smoke ๐!
Your gameplan seems solid. Don't forget timing is everything โจ๏ธ. Good luck and if I don't make it back, enjoy!
@@CRANKSTER_420, thanks dude, she's a looker ๐ turning purple and so frosty. I think I got 2 full weeks left and hoping they fill out just a bit more.
Its not running out, its you reducing amounts to healthy from previous overdose. Add epsom salt to feeds or other way increase magnesium a bit. Have fun !
@jmsky, i am growing actively for 8 years, with a lot of plants, but in my recent run i had two anomalies first time. One plant was showing magnesium issues till almost mid of flower, most probably pickiest strain ever . Other was diagnosed by me wrong, first time bumbed into calcium toxicity, symptoms very similar to deficiency and i screw up heavily. Main thing - never panic. Rethink many times and then do actions.
Happy Growing !!!
@AsNoriu, thanks for the tips! I am still learning and often read confusing or conflicting things, especially about nutrients and reading leaves. I appreciate your experienced guidance! ๐
@jmsky, i dont know, maybe medium was too hot, but that patern of discoloration from dark green to patchy bright is aftermath of overfeeding. I saw signs of magnesium too, thats why i wrote. Plants responds good - carry on . Sometimes they need time to establish, main thing are they developing and growing healthy - if yes, ignore my remarks.
Good luck !
HSC Seeds sind immer in der gleichen Packung. Ich denke das sind keine Bl. Muffin voc HSC gewesen. Seeds die nicht original verpackt sind sind auch nicht von HSC
